All hail ! to the Chief of the vallies and mountains, And hail! to the Chief of the forest and lake, Whose judgment all clear, as his pure native fountains, To guard, and to cherish, is ever awake. While loud blows the trumpet of fame, to the warrior, And green blooms the cypress, that wares o'er his grave; Ah ! who does not honour and love the Protector Of famishing Scotia, the laud of the hrave.* How swells every bosom, bow glows admiration, When Greatness and Goodness together combine When the Boast of our Nobles, the Pride of our Nation, With talents delight us, with virtues refine : Then bind round his temples the patriot laurel That shadows the brow of the good and the No envy shall stain it, nor malice shall quarrel, That garland, uninjureil by tears and by sighs. The latest accounts from S'. 11 ttna continue to mention the circumstance of the ilor making his way to the residence of BUONAPARTE. It was also reported ou the island, that in conseqee , ce of representations front NApor.BoN, or from other circumstances, he would shortly quit Longwood, and reside at a 'Nit% LEeCH'S farm, which had been, or was about to be, purchased for his fu ture residence. The latter is situated to the west ward of the only landing-place on the island, about three or four miles in the interior. The only access to it is a winding way no the Ladder hill, at the top of which is a strong battery. The accounts state that it Was coustdered by every person not only the most pleasant residence en the island, hut that all chance of escape was ren dered impossible, as am' person approaching could he seen at a great distance ; and as there was *At a time when the Highland Districts of Scotland were only one path, a few sentinels would he sufficient suffering from a very great scarcity, his Grace imported, _at for the purpose of guarding it.

EXTRAORDINARY ESCAPE AND APPEHENSION OF A PRISONER. On the 2d instant, John NO, who was con. fined in Tuthill-fields prison on a charge of fraud, in . obtaining 19 one-pound Bank of England notes, by means of false representations, from a Gentleman named Joseph Jay, of It ic,lintood, escaped from - Mr. Pople, an under-keeper of the prison, as he was conveying him and another pri sorier in a hackney-coach to Marlborough -street Police-office for final examination. Bond is a well-known duffer, and obtained the money in the usual style, by purling upon Mr. Jay goods which he pretended to be of considerably . greater value than he so ld th em f or, when in fact they were made to deceive, and of no value at all.— Bond escaped out of the.hackney-coach in Swallow street, OxfOrd-street, in the following manner : The street was being paved, and the coachman drew up his horses for the purpose of turning bark. Mr. Topic put his head through one of the windows, and was asking the coachman the cause of the interruption, when Bond threw himself head foremost through the other window, and with mu c h dexterity turned a Somerset, and fell upon his feet ; he ran off as fast as he could, and Mr. Pople not being able to leave his other pri soner to pursue him, he escaped. No tidings were heard of Bond until Saturday last, when informa tion was received that he was lurking about Datchett and Wimisor. George Pople and Alfred Pople, officers of Queen-square, were sent to ap prehend him, and on Saturday night they found Bond in the Horse and Groom public-house at Datchett, and took him into custody. Ii being late at night, the officers put Bond to bed in a back room on the second floor, and took his clothes into an adjoining room. About three o'clock next morning they were awoke by a noise of the window in the prisoner's room shutting, and immediately went to learn the cause, and, to their great surprise,,they saw Bond at a distance of several fields from the house in his shirt only, running as fast as he could, having leaped from the window, a descent of nearly 20 feet. They par sued him imMediately, and after a chase of three miles over hedge, ditch, and fields, they got within 100 yards of him, and threatened to shoot him if he did not stop ; he continued running, and they fired at and missed him. They fired a second time, and wounded him on the cap of the knee, and he could proceed no further; they bum& him to London on M on d ay , an d gave him into the custody of Mr. Nodder, the keeper of 'Polhill-fields prison. The Magistrates hare appoi n t e d to-morrow for his examination at Marlborough-street.

THE THEATRES, KING'S THBATRB.—There was a ♦ery numerous attendance last night to MOZART'S beautiful Opera of Cosi Fan Tutti. The Duke and Duchess of CLARENCE made their first public appearance on this occasion,. and were most warmly received ; God save the King was called for in compliment to them, and sung by all the Vocnl Performers. The concluding Ballet of La Dansomanie detained the company till a late hour. For the 'gratifying of our migrating Readers in this country and abroad, we subjoin a notice of aortae of the higher • visitors : MR. IJbITOII,--At a Dinner given by the respectable Inha bitants of the City of Perth to his Grace the Duke of ATHOL, the following Verses, composed for the occasion, were sung by their Author : should they appear deserving of a place in your Pttper, your inserting them (in whatever manner you may think proper) will much oblige CITY 13U::INESS A Court of Aldermen was yesrerd3y held at Guildhall, at which LAWRENCE GWYNNE, ES,j• lately elected Sheriff, attended, and entered into bond to take upon him the sail office.

ASSIZE OF BREAD. After the Minutes of the last Court had been read, Mr. DixoN.in4nired whether any measures had beets taken in relation.to the Assize of Bread, the repealing of the former Act bring merely a matter of experiment. Alderman Virpoo, previous to the principal business, stated, that he had paid paiticular at tention to the alteration in setting the Assize of Bread, with a view to bring the 1.0*(1 before Parliament. During the time lie hell a seat in the last Parliament, he conversed with Mr. Frankland Lewis, who advised him not to intro duce it to the House this , year, but early nes-P year. :pie object for delay acquirement of proper information. A Committee of that Court hail sat many hours in the day to investi gatethe subject, and their Report, u laid be fore Parliament, would enable the . House to say whether the alteration was useful to the poblic or not. Ile. wished, in this instance, to torn, the Committee again, and that the Court should con sider whether the alteration was betKficial. The Committee might go into tinther investigation before the Meeting of Parliament, and have an opportunity of affording proper information, The LORD MAYOR was of opinion the subject ought to he brought before the Court. Mr. S. DIXON considered it a question of the greatest importance to the public. CONGRATULATORY ADDRESSES. The Requisition was then read, and Mr. Al derman HHYGATII introduced the subject in an appropriate speech, and concluded by moving for Addresses and Compliments to be presented to the Prince Regent, the Quern, and the Dukes and Duchesses of .

Yesterday George Watson Taylor, Esq. M.P. nne of the Lice-Presidents ; Sir l'lminas Beil, the Treasurer; with a nh. nierous and respectable body of the Officers, Members of the Committees, and other Gentlemen. Governors of the Corpora tion, assembled at their Hall, in Crane court ; and from thence proceeded to the residence of his Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence and St. Andrew's, at St. James's. The deputation being joined by the Most Noble the Marquis of Hourly, an other of the Vice-Presidents, was introduced to his Royal' Highness; and the • Noble Marquis, aftet a few prehminarr observations, deli Sered to the Secretary, Mr. Auld. a paper containing an Address of Congratulation, which was lead t's his Royal Highness. To which his Royal Highness returned a most gracious Answer. pieces. Its characters, like those of the aforesaid Pieces, are of the higher order—Kings, Princesses, a General, and Maids of Honour. It was very well supported by HARLEY, CHATTERLEY, Miss KtLLY, and the rest. We beg leave to observe,. that when public Performers are delivering rhyme, they should recollect that it is rhyme, and not, by an attempt to shew good sense and taste, destroy the Music in order to enforce the meaning. A judicious Reciter will accomplish both purposes of an Author, by at once . s h ew i ng hi s mean i ng and preserving his numbers. The piece was very well received, and is really most ludicrously en tertaining. • His Itoril Highness then conducted the Deputatii.n to the presence of his illustrious Consort; to whom an Address was read. And to which her Royal Highness replied in the roost gracious manner. The Marquis of Huntly, Mr. Watson Taylor, Sir Thomas Bell,and all the Gentlemen present, had the honour of kissing► her Royal Highness's band, and afterwards withdrew. BUCKINGHAM.—The two Concerts given in the Theatre during the Assize week were honoured by the attendance of the Marquis Of.BUCKINGHAM and Lady TEMPLE, Lord NUGENT and W. LOWNDES, Esq.,.

CHAP LAIN, Esq., and most of the distinguished families in the neighbourhood, The principal vocalists were Miss Geosca,. who sang with the greatest sweet.' ness, Master DONALDSON, GARBETT, MILLAR, 'ftiORNE, and YARDLEY. The Concerts were se lected with the greatest judgment byMr.CLARKR, the aganist, and comprised many of the most favourite Compositions of HANDEL, HAYDN, MOZART, PLEYEL, SHIELD, BIsHoP, CALLCOTT, WEBRE; BRAHAU, WHITAKER, STORACE, WIN TER, MAZZINGHI, &c. s hich were performed with the happiest effect, and many most deservedly en cored.
